Slipping through my Fingers

I can't even begin to tell you how much this picture describes how I feel lately.  I feel like all I do is run around trying to catch sand in an open hand while watching it fall through my fingers.  Life is always crazy and busy but lately it just seems overwhelming.  I think it is because both home and work are demanding at the same time.  Add in a lack of sleep, overtime at work and increased stress from too much on a small plate and that sand just keeps falling right through.  I feel like I run around with a to do list that never gets done and only gets longer.  I am not sure what the solution is.  A vacation is coming in mid August but I need a break from the world for a day or two; where everything stops and no one needs anything or my to do list can be put on hold.  I am tired of chasing things at work only to be further behind.  I feel like I can't take a day off when that's exactly what I need.  I am not really sure what the solution is in the short term but I wanted to write down my thoughts hoping it might clarify my decision to change things in the long term.  I hate change when that's exactly what is happening all the time.  Irony at it's finest.  Some things never change and some things always do.
